It appears both usermod and useradd use the local /etc/group rather

Am I doing something wrong or is this indeed a bug in the coreutils?
It might be a bug, but not in coreutils - these programs are not part of
coreutils.
I'm using debian jessie's 8.23-4 on amd64
It seems that in Debian, these programs are part of the 'passwd' package,
whose source is maintained here (as upstream of the 'shadow' package):

You could try asking here:
